Today Chris met Mr. Arya at Yamada hospital because he was ready for a blood test. Mr. Arya took him to see Mr. Arya's friend who is a doctor, Doctor Laura Bennett, a general practitioner but a doctor who trusted Mr. Arya. The process of taking blood is very fast but the process of proving that they father the child will take about a week. Mr. Arya is very grateful to Chris for working together. He said goodbye to Mr. Arya because there is still business in the office.
FutureCorp building, Chris' office.
Chris arrives at lunch and heads straight to Jerry's room. He runs into his best friend in front of the elevator because Jerry happens to be out for lunch. So, he came down again with Jerry.
Once out of the office building they headed to the nearest cafe on foot. Arriving at the cafe, they immediately ordered lunch for two servings and chose a seat in the non-smoking area because they did not want to be disturbed by the smoke.
“Jer, where have you been lately? I miss the time we both had fun.” Chris protested when he was more with Alexa.
“Lha, you did not protest wrong? I should have protested the same way you did. You since the same Alexa, nempel continue.”
“Hehe,” said Chris without guilt. “Alright, after from the parlor I will share my time with you. But if you want to tell me anything I'm willing to listen. Ok. Don't all think for yourself.”
“Actually I want to tell you a story but I'm still not ready. Maybe after you come home from home just deh.”
“Ok, then let me ask your opinion on this.”
Their chatter interrupted the waiter who brought their order. After serving and the waiter left, they resumed the chat.
“Aparticularly?”
“Looks like I'm going to follow up on you yesterday about applying for Alexa. Later at the orphanage, this is still waiting for my order ring to apply still not so.”
“That's my brother, Chris. Congratulations yes! I'm so happy!” Jerry gave both thumbs up to Chris finally dares to take the chance.
Chris who saw Jerry's face change after talking about marriage made him wonder. However, he does not want to force Jerry to tell him. As Jerry said earlier, after the orphanage he will make sure again. Because he already thinks Jerry is his own family so that if he gets into trouble he will help like Jerry who is always there for him.
Chris wanted to do the same thing as Jerry treated him. All this time if there was no Jerry, somehow his fate. They finished their lunch and returned to the office after that. Chris will take care of his leave about the next three weeks so he is currently asking Melissa to sort out and choose a job that is really important to work on this week.
If Chris is on leave, Melissa will not take a leave of absence but will be seconded to Jerry or other divisions for a while. It could be that Chris will be able to work for a while in between his leave so as not to rule out the possibility of Melissa will not have a job.
She walks into his room while Melissa devises a schedule for him. He opened his phone and saw a message from Alexa.
Alexa: How to take care of the holidays?
Alexa: I haven't taken care of it yet, maybe later in the afternoon after taking care of work for a while.
Chris: Don't get too tired. XOXO'S.
Alexa there smiled to herself so that when rebuked Bianca, she was ashamed. Not usually Chris uses emoticons in his messages. How not to make it wrong. Chris looks stiff at the beginning but after getting to know him again he displays a warm persona towards people close to him.

A week later, Chris came to the jewelry store to pick up his order. He waited for ten minutes for the clerk to take his ring. His employee had already brought his order and asked him to check if there was any improvement or not. He took the ring and looked at the Javanese carving. The writing engraved there is beautiful although small but very neat workmanship. For the application ring he chose more luxurious but without engraving the name Alexa. Because the purpose of the wedding ring Chris wants will be more meaningful if there is a carving of the name.
Finished with the ring business, he went to see Mr. Arya who asked to meet in his office to see the test results together. He gave a message to Alexa not so to the office of her lover because there is an appointment with Mr. Arya.
He arrived at Mr. Arya's office and is currently heading to Arya's room. Chris has also asked Mr. Arya not to tell the results to a friend of Mr. Arya. He was told to go straight in by the secretary of Arya sir who was outside. Inside he is welcome to sit in a more private space. The space usually used by Mr. Arya to discuss his client's problems.
After Chris sat down, Mr. Arya gave the brown envelope so that he himself opened and read the results first. Although Chris was groggy, but he chose to open it directly rather than curious. From here you can also know that at least he has a father if the results match.
After being removed and read the document, a change in the look of his face held in anger. But there was relief there too. He handed it back to Arya, while Chris leaned back to calm her heart after knowing the truth. Yes, Chris is the son of a friend of Mr. Arya, namely Hector James.
Chris: Honey, could you please go to Arya's place for a minute? Take a taxi, I need you right now.
The message was sent to Alexa so that her lover could help her to calm her heart and mind. Right now his thoughts were mixed, angry, disappointed, sad, and so forth raging into one. He drank the water provided to help eliminate this anxiety.
He asked Mr. Arya, “Pak, may I know why he was looking for his son when he was old in addition to taking care of his property.”
Mr. Arya who feels guilty to Chris because he has been forced, but how else he tried to help his best friend.
“Actually it's not just that, Chris. According to your father's story ...”
“Don't call him my father! At the moment I am angry, I beg you to understand my attitude.” Chris refuted Arya's statement.
“Sorry. According to Hector's story, your mother was pregnant with you and held Hector accountable. She was already about to marry him, but Hector's family disagreed and instead betrothed him to someone else. From there Hector hid your mother so as not to be threatened or colonized by her family. When you were born, your mother died of bleeding. Hector who wanted to take you was threatened by his family. The choice is if you'll be killed if he insists on taking you.”
“At that time he was desperate and asked your mother's friend to leave at the Husada Sail orphanage. The plan is at least when you're five Hector will take you. But everything is not as planned, Hector's father knows the plan and knows where you are. So only now is he looking for you because his father is currently sick paralyzed, no longer powerful as before. And his father asked to find you to apologize.”
